本次meeting因颱風來襲取消,請互相提醒一下喔!

Dear YOYOs, time to yoyo your body! :)

I came across this great article when searching a topic about healthy diet. I believe most of us are in the habit of dining out everyday. Perhaps it is our busy life that hampers us from cooking for our own, or even some may consider the cooking outside more delicious. Therefore, it is important for us so-called 三餐老是在外, "老外", to eat smart and eat healthy.

The article for the meeting can be found in
